Tires Running Out
IT is quite apparent from
I Klamath county war price
great many people here are
rubber situation that confronts the nation and tins community.
Applications pour into
score. In one week, applications for new passenger car
tires ran up to a total which
number of new tires allotted
that week. Applications for
quota.
When only three new
users for an entire week, it
thinks at all that the easy
people whose tires are essential in their daily work will
have to get along without new ones.
This calls for conservation, for capacity use of cars
that travel to work centers, changeover to bicycles, more
walking, more use of public transportation facilities. It
may not be necessary to
pleasure, as yet, but certainly
such purposes without realizing that no more will be
available when these are gone.
People fortunate enough to get tires through eligibility
have a greater moral and legal responsibility to conserve
their rubber than those who
tions require that 100 per cent of the use of the tire must
be for the purpose for which
cial privileges carry special

Entire families, from grandpa

The officials also predict that
because of this there will be no

The business men go into the
fields from sun-up until noon,
then go back to town to open
shops. They will continue to do
this for the rest of the week-

The effectiveness of this was
proved in the sugar beet fields

towns closed down until noon

Behi
W7ASH1NGTON, July 10 The
press has reported learning
"on good authority" that the ad
ministration is considering leg
islation to freeze the wage-price
economic level hard.
The authority was "very
good. Thero is none better. The
notion can be traced bnek to
Mr. Roosevelt himself.
His congressional leaders re
port him worried. Ho took the
matter up with the big four of
the house and senate at their
Inst weekly private meeting at
the White House, but only in
general way along the same lines
he previously had suggested to
them.
They did not undentand that
he had anything immediate in
mind, but that he rather gener
ally shares the opinion which
his price fixer Leon Henderson
suggested to a senator, recently:
"Something will have to be
done."
Meanwhile, wags around con
gress are popularizing the quip
that the immediate problem is to
bring the "all-in economy up
to the all-out war effort.
While the conversationalists
are using "all-in" only faceti
ously, the problem is growing
fast, against only such verbal
brakes as the president and Hen
derson are using.
Congress is inflationary-mind
ed. The farm bloc wants higher
price, not necessarily what they
consider inflationary prices, but
higher than presently allowed.
Labor as always, wants wage in
creases. ,
Together they represent ma
jority opinion in the legislature.
Ihey were the ones who turned
down all strong freezing de
vices in the present price-wage
law and limited Henderson's de
vices.
But you cannot blame it all
on congress. The farm bloc jus-
mies itself, for instance, by
rightly claiming that the ad
ministration policy on labor and
wages has also been inflationary.
urtnermore, behind thesi
generalizations, the situation is
criss-crossed with innumerable
political self-interests. Current
White House worry, for instance,
is deepened by congressional
failure to levy all taxes Mr. Mor-
genthau wants and by obstreper
ous antics of the farm bloc on
the feed-selling program.
Congressional antagonism to
Henderson likewise lies in his
failure to give them patronage
in his vast organization.
Aoove an, everyone is con
scious and super-sensitive of the
coming congressional elections.
It may be some time before
anything effective is done.
WPB REORGANIZATION '
Donald Nelson's latest reor
ganization of his successful war
production board did not mate
rially touch one point of inner-
criticism the preponderance of
investment bankers and finan
cial business men in his organ
ization.
His personnel assistant hap
pens to De Sidney Weinberg, of
ijoiaman-bachs, who naturally
nappens to know practically
everyone in Wall Street or in
the finance end of corporations,
rather than the production end.
The result is one official was
able to number on his fingers
sixteen such men in front WPB
positions, the most Drominent
being:
Cliff Hill, Guaranty Trust
company; Ed. Locke, Chase Na
tional bank; Arthur Bunker,
Lehman Brothers; James S.
Knowlson, president, Stewart
Warner; Arthur Newhall, vice
president Talon, Inc., and Les-
smg J. Rosenwald, Rosenwald
Foundation.

what it is, Mr. Weinberg seems
to be running a Si a year un
employment relief program for
investment bankers in WPB.

scrap campaign is somewhat po
litical and has produced little
real rubber of use for tires Is
thoroughly disproved by the de
tailed results.
It is true that old tires and
tubes are about the only scrap
articles containing sufficient rub
ber for use in re-capping or
making new ones. Some rain
coats, shoes and garden hose are
helpful.
But most of the other articles
contain so little rubber and so
much foreign substance, their
practical value must fall In other
less critical lines.
The evidence shows, however,
more than half the scrap rubber
acquired comes within the suit
able category. From July 1
through the 7th, according to
the petroleum war Industry coun
cil, 534 carloads of casings and
414 carloads of mixed rubber
were shipped out of the bulk
storage points to the reclaimers.
WESTERN SUCCESS
Extraordinary success of the
campaign out west (short of the
Pacific coast) is attributed by
authorities to two factors:
Public spirited enthusiasm
generally runs stronger in those
communities than along the more
densely populated coast; also re
claiming by junk dealers was
more Intensive in populous cen
ters before the campaign start
ed. High shipping costs worked
against depletion of western
stocks.
EMBARRASSING MOMENT
There was an embarrassing
moment on. the radio the other
evening for one of the armed
forces in the New York area.
During a question and answer
program, the military men were
given three of Mr, Roosevelt's
proposed freedoms for which
they are fighting and asked to
state the fourth. No one knew.
Apparently some educational
propaganda work is needed.
PROTECTS ITSELF
A spider doesn't get caueht in
its own web since it keeps its
legs covered with a film of oil
that prevents sticking. The be
lief that certain strands of the
web are snareproof and that the
spider sets its feet on these alone
is erroneous.
DEFENSIVE PRECAUTION
Henry VH, through a deo.-ee.
